Thanks freecat - I keep telling myself to stop working in this color triad - you know, doing that Push Your Comfort Zone - but this triad just keeps calling to me. It's the colors that I just automatically associate with Spike and the darkside of Spuffy.

this is the image that I was working on when I decide to try the icons I did with the "soul" text theme. I've been looking at it and thinking on how to make it more interesting and strong - this was the latest working.

The discussion on Spike-Soul and the AR is taking me back into studies of the darker character studies.
